i have a new queen what to do

[waryorx]

i started a new game and 50 years into the world generator. anyway when my population was 14 my fisherwoman called herself the queen of our civ. and now she needs royal rooms :D how can i make royal rooms ???

Your random fisherwoman was/is like the daughter of the former King or Queen, which means they are now probably dead. If the World is only 50 years old, they almost certainly died of violence rather than old age. I would check the reports/rumors/news section on the world map screen to see what happened. After they died, succession then probably passed down to your Fisherdwarf.

As the Monarch of your entire civilization, she has room requirements of a Royal Throne Room, a Royal Bedroom, a Royal Dining Room, and a Royal Mausoleum. The 'Royal' in this case is something of an arbitrary attribute, ANY Office, Bedroom, Dining Room, and Tomb can be described as 'Royal' simply by having a high enough quality - it does not necessarily mean they belong to a Monarch. A Fortress Champion/Mayor/The Seven might have Royal Rooms, just for example.

The actual numerical value in terms of quality that you need to hit to make a room 'Royal' in quality is 10,000 Dwarfbucks, each. This is actually difficult to achieve if your fortress is as new/small as you are suggesting. It is possible to put multiple artifacts on display and still not hit the 10,000 threshold.

The USUAL way of going about this, is by having your most talented masons, metalworkers, and carpenters working in restricted workshops to produce mastercraft furniture of the most valuable materials you have on hand - Platinum Bars, for example. Then, you would move it to restricted Gemcutter stockpiles where your most skilled gemsetters would encrust the furniture with the most high-quality and high-value gems you have on hand. Then you would repeat this as many times as necessary to meet the individual's specific furniture requirements while also meeting the value threshold for each room (Monarch have a specific requirement where they need a minimum of 10 chests, 5 cabinets, and 5 ornamental weapon racks and armor stands, each, between all of their rooms, on top of needing Royal rooms).

But if you only have 14 Dwarves - it sounds like you have only had one Migrant wave - I imagine you presently have no mineral ores, let alone metal bars, or gems, or even particularly skilled craftsdwarves.

If you do not meet her room requirements, your Monarch is going to slowly get angrier and angrier until they start throwing Tantrums, which will then start angering your other dwarves if not resulting in her injuring/beating them.

You now also get the 'benefit' of her FIVE production mandates that, if ignored, will also impact her mood, and her TEN objective/possession demands that will also impact her mood if you fail to pony up,

You cannot expel her from your fortress because she is a Noble, and if she should happen to die then succession means that some other Dwarf somewhere else in the civilization will MAYBE become the Monarch. Check her family relations to see if she has any siblings, chances are the second-eldest, living sibling would be eligible.

You just need a room that has high value, and that could be achieved in a lot of ways.

You can do something different, but here's what I do...

I build four large rooms connected with doors. First room - office for the queen, second room Dining hall for the queen, third room - bedroom, fourth rooms - tomb. All assigned to that one character.

Then furnish the rooms with tables, chairs, chests, beds, coffins, armor stands and weapon racks. These can all be made out of rock in the beginning.

Smooth the floors and walls, then engrave them ( Smooth and engrave - options at the bottom of the screen.)

That should make them happy until you add more valuable furniture and so on.

Cheers

Engrave metal floors and use pedestals to display valuable things like artifacts and cut gems in her rooms. Just be sure to enclose artifacts or chain dogs next to them so they don't get stolen.

so basicly i need to assasinate my queen lol. i started playing 2 weeks ago i got the hang od it most of the things but i dont know how to do spesific stockfile nets to avoid using masterpiece quipment. well in this run i was trying to learn how to be more better than my older fortress as a industrywise.


welp, gotta throw my queen to a deep cold well and pray nobody notice her being lost

[The Trashman]

Or ignore all that stuff, give her the best you can and ignore her gradual decline into madness

[Terminal]

I mean what civilization does NOT have a Mad Monarch period? Think of this as an opportunity! You can get your obscenely mad ruler phase out of the way!

You may want more migrants sooner rather than later though, so that you have a population big enough to actually soak the related fatalities. Also to tide you over when the civil war cascade begins and completely cuts off all migration.
